king and his guard

"Then do it, I have no resistance, right?" Lin Fengying straightened her body, stretched out her hand to pinch the edge of the sword, gently moved the sword from her neck to her left chest, and said sadly: "It's good to stab here, one sword Go down, so that this heart won't hurt like this anymore."

Wu Shuang was shaking all over, Lin Fengying smiled weakly: "Why don't you do it?"

He suddenly got up and jumped off the bed, taking a step towards Wu Shuang's sword tip, but Wu Shuang's sword retreated at the same time, Lin Fengying sneered: "Of course you don't dare to kill me, because I still have value! If it wasn't for Xue Ai, I'm afraid your sword would have been stabbed down without hesitation!"

"You!" Wu Shuang was furious, her sword trembling was almost unsteady, her brows were furrowed, and she said bitterly: "Lin Fengying, you are despicable, do you want to think others are as shameless as you?" Withdrawing his sword, he stepped in front of Lin Fengying, stared at him coldly, after a long while, finally said: "I hate you!"

Tears rolled in his eyes, but he tried his best not to let them overflow, "Lin Fengying, I hate you!"

"Then do it, I'll give you this chance!" Lin Fengying kept approaching, forcing Wu Shuang to keep retreating.

Tears suddenly flashed in Lin Fengying's eyes, and his tone softened a lot: "You can't bear it after all, right? I know you have feelings for me."

Wu Shuang sneered and said, "You've already said it right. I won't kill you because you still have value. I hope you don't break your promise in front of the heroes!"

"It's all my fault for saying the wrong thing in a moment of impatience! Shuang'er, can you forgive me once? I beg you! Please..." said Qian sincerely and eagerly, but suddenly his eyes went dark, and he lay on his back on the bed.

Wu Shuang quickly arranged him, touched his numb fingers, sighed, walked out quietly, and closed the door behind him.

Xue Ai was sleeping heavily, and the smell of alcohol in the room made people feel intoxicated.Wu Shuang reached out and shook his shoulder and called twice.

Only then did Xue Ai open her eyelids and take a look, then yawned and turned over and fell asleep.

Wu Shuang got up helplessly and said: "Go back to sleep, I'm leaving first, I'm going back to Beiyue Palace."

This sentence really came true, Xue Aiteng turned over and sat up, opened his eyes and asked: "Shall we go now?"

Wu Shuang hummed: "Let's go right away."

Xue Ai took her clothes and got out of bed, yawned and stretched her arms: "I drank too much wine last night, and I still feel bad today."

Wu Shuang waited on him to get dressed as usual, and urged him to wash up.

Xue Ai also asked stupidly: "Do you want to say goodbye to Master Lin?"

Wu Shuang said indifferently: "No need, I have already told him."

They came to the stable to lead the horse, and the two of them rode northward all the way. They ate something halfway, Wu Shuang urged the horse to gallop ahead, causing Xue Ai to chase after him.

"Wu Shuang! Why are you running so fast?"

"I just want to get out of here as soon as possible!"

"Why? It's inexplicable!"

"drive!!"

After running for an unknown number of miles, Wu Shuang finally reined in the reins, got off his horse, and went straight to a small river in front of him, reaching out to wash his face with water.

Xue Ai caught up and asked, "What's the matter?"

Wu Shuang raised his wet eyes and said casually, "It's all right."

"Who would believe it?" Seeing his flickering eyes, Xue Ai sighed softly: "If you have something to do, do you really want to hide it from me?"

Wu Shuang said: "It's really all right, it's just that my stomach was ruined by drinking last night, and I still feel uncomfortable now."

Xue Ai was so anxious, she stretched out her hand to gently rub his stomach, and said angrily, "You know you have a bad stomach, so what are you doing? And that Lin Fengying, and those gang leaders! Blame me for not taking good care of you."

The water on Wu Shuang's face had already dried up, but there was a layer of water in his eyes.Xue Ai held his hand tightly, and the two looked at each other speechlessly for a moment.

After a long time, Wu Shuang was a little startled, but couldn't bear to let go of his hand, and only raised his eyes to look around, afraid that such intimacy would make outsiders laugh at him.

Xue Ai knew his concerns, but instead of letting go, she held her hand even more firmly, and suddenly said: "I just want everyone in the world to know that we..."

Wu Shuang pulled out his hand and covered his mouth: "Stop talking!" Then he got on the horse, and without waiting for Xue Ai to speak, he rode away.

Xue Ai caught up closely, and the two walked side by side.Wu Shuang didn't say much, but fortunately Xue Ai was attracted by the scenery along the way, and didn't pay much attention to his emotions.

Jomo walked another one or two hundred miles, and didn't stop his horse to rest until he entered the boundary of Quancheng.

Xue Ai was thirsty, and suddenly saw two tea sheds and wine houses not far in front of her, so she hurriedly led her horse to go, but unexpectedly, the doors of those two houses were locked tightly. It has been unoccupied for a long time.

Xue Ai was wondering, when she heard a burst of chaotic footsteps mixed with continuous whipping and cursing, coming from far and near.

Wu Shuang hurriedly pulled him to hide behind the house, and saw a few officers and soldiers coming from a distance, with treasured swords on their waists and long whips in their hands, all of them had stern eyebrows and fierce eyes.

Several officers and soldiers escorted a team of corvees behind them. There were more than 30 men, all of whom were ragged and disheveled. These men were of different ages. On the thick hemp rope, it looks like a bunch of grasshoppers from a distance.

The few officers and soldiers walking at the end of the line saw some people walking slowly in the line, so they yelled loudly and raised their whips and whipped them violently.Some were beaten to the point of bleeding, and what's more, if they tripped accidentally, all the officers and soldiers rushed up and punched and kicked them.

Seeing this, Xue Ai was furious, gritted her teeth and said angrily: "How dare these officers and soldiers commit murder and hurt people in broad daylight!"

Wu Shuangdao: "The person being escorted seems to be a coolie on the construction site."

Xue Ai said angrily: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have known that these officers and soldiers are so vicious and lawless!"

While speaking, the team of corvees had gone far away.Wu Shuangdao: "There is Spring City in front of us. We have been walking for a long time, people are hungry and horses are tired. The most important thing is to find an inn to rest first."

Not long after walking, I finally saw the gate of Quancheng. Along the way, I encountered several batches of corvee escorts, roughly a hundred of them.

Looking around, the city gate stands tall, but there are very few people entering and leaving the city.

On one side of the city gate was posted a list of kings, and two officers and soldiers were stationed here, and all the passers-by came to watch, whispering and gesticulating.
